I applied online for my local store and got an email back two weeks later about a hiring event for three different stores. When I got there, I was given a sheet to fill out and waited in a seating area. The hiring managers came and took groups of ten into a conference room upstairs for a group interview where we went around and introduced ourselves and then split into groups by what store we applied at and talked to that specific hiring manager.

It was at one of their hiring fairs. I walked in and was guided to the back of the store where I sat with one or two other interviewees and filled out some paperwork. I then met with one of the co-managers who administered the interview. He asked basic questions about who I was and what I aspired to do. He seemed to understand that due to the nature of my plans that I would be leaving the company in a relatively short amount of time. He later explained how being a cashier worked and how much i would be paid, along with some of the many benefits of working of Kroger. It ended with signing an offer of employment and a drug test. Overall a nice and easy experience.
